Chatel Mountain Style is clearly so big, steep, and generally gnarly that most of the competitors chose to ride downhill bikes. At a scale that can only be compared to Rampage on the FMB World Tour, Chatel was not nice to the little bikes.

Another uncooperative feature of this year’s contest was weather, and as it turns out, the finals were called off and qualifying runs were used to determine who was going to take home the bacon.

Brandon Semenuk kept it together more than most, tricking a few jumps that others were happy enough to land cleanly. Cam Zink pulled in second with Kyle Strait third. Watch videos of the top three runs below, apparently filmed with a potato.
